Load Definitions and Explanations

Break Load = The stress which, when steadily applied to a structural member, is just sufficient to break or rupture it. Also known as ultimate load.

SWL (Safe Working Load) = Briefly defined, the 'safe working load' of a line is the load that can be applied without causing any kind of damage to the line. Note that the safe working load is considerably less than the breaking strength.

Factors of safety should always be applied when calculating maximum loading conditions. In cases of doubt, an engineer should be consulted to assess the loading and advise on suitable factors of safety to ensure that overloading cannot occur.

The SWL is calculated using a given safety factor, SF, which for S3i Ltd, is provided as 6:1
